    A State Against Church: Inside Hindutva War on MP's Christians | A Quint Documentary
    Apr 22 2026
    In Madhya Pradesh, a faith is on trial. Prayer meetings and churches are raided. Pastors are framed and silenced under "forceful conversion" cases but the ground reality paints a different picture. In this documentary, we show you how the persecution of Christians has taken a new shape. We expose how the anti-conversion law is being misused in newer ways and the real human cost of such Hindutva attacks on poor Christians who now live in fear. Slight correction: The lawyer shown in the documentary writes his name as Vinay Davis and not as Vinay James. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Real Story Behind Women's Reservation Bill: Modi Govt's Failed Move to Change India's Electoral Map
    Apr 22 2026
    Why did the Narendra Modi-led BJP government bring the Women's Reservation Bill even though it had already been passed with the Opposition's help in 2023? The reason is that it was only a trick to carry out delimitation ahead of the 2029 Lok Sabha elections. So far, delimitation has taken place in Assan and Jammu and Kashmir. In both these places, the exercise has led to gerrymandering, or manipulation to benefit the BJP. How was this done? Will this happen nationally? Watch this video to find out.
